Fukushima and Health


Author:
Keywords: japan; fukushima; radiation; health
Collection: opensource

Description

For those who wish to know the health consequences of the Fukushima catastrophe,



the answers are to be found within this volume and in the radiation risk model of the



ECRR. The data presented at the 2009 Lesvos conference of the European



Committee on Radiation Risk show the real world effects of living in areas



contaminated with the dispersed contents of an exploded nuclear reactor. Twenty



five years of studies of people living on the Chernobyl contaminated territories has



been enough to quantify in detail the cancers, the heart disease, the loss of lifespan,



the congenital illnesses, even the changes in sex ratio, in childhood intelligence and



in mental health that follow the exposures to radioactive contamination from fission



products, activation products and uranium fuel particles.
